Johnson, House Speaker, Demands That Ukraine Fire Its U.S. Ambassador
Briefly

Mike Johnson, the Republican Speaker of the House, has demanded the dismissal of Ukraine's ambassador to Washington, accusing her of election interference after a partisan visit.
Johnson's criticism stems from a visit by Ukrainian President Zelensky to an ammunition factory in Pennsylvania, which he claims was orchestrated to promote Democrats in a battleground state.
The visit was framed by Johnson as a campaign event supporting Democratic candidates, as no Republicans were present, leading to accusations of misuse of taxpayer funds.
Alongside Johnson's claims, James Comer announced an investigation, asserting that the event was a partisan gathering ostensibly funded by taxpayers.
